1
00:00:01,448 --> 00:00:03,115
Previously, on Elementary...
2
00:00:03,139 --> 00:00:04,456
Murder in Paris.
3
00:00:04,556 --> 00:00:05,889
French businesswoman,
4
00:00:05,891 --> 00:00:07,924
Sabine Raoult,
was gunned down in the street.
5
00:00:07,926 --> 00:00:09,326
The crime was never solved.
6
00:00:09,328 --> 00:00:11,361
The two bullets missing
from the crime scene
7
00:00:11,363 --> 00:00:13,096
ended up in my father.
8
00:00:13,098 --> 00:00:14,731
Nobody at Interpol knows
what I've done.
9
00:00:14,733 --> 00:00:16,399
Truly above and beyond
10
00:00:16,401 --> 00:00:17,767
this time, Agent Muller.
11
00:00:17,769 --> 00:00:19,469
This business with your son--
12
00:00:19,471 --> 00:00:21,571
do you expect me to believe
you're here to help him?
13
00:00:21,573 --> 00:00:23,707
Did you know you had
a predecessor, Lukas?
14
00:00:23,709 --> 00:00:27,010
His name was
Jasper De Clerq.
15
00:00:27,012 --> 00:00:28,278
My God, Morland.
16
00:00:29,247 --> 00:00:31,214
His children found him.
17
00:00:31,216 --> 00:00:33,516
I think Sabine
was collateral damage.
18
00:00:33,518 --> 00:00:34,918
Morland was the target.
19
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,520
Someone tried to kill
your father,
20
00:00:37,522 --> 00:00:39,322
and he's worried
they're gonna try again.

Oh, dear.
26
00:00:54,373 --> 00:00:57,474
I've done something new
to anger you.
27
00:00:57,476 --> 00:00:59,509
It's what you didn't do.
28
00:00:59,511 --> 00:01:01,611
You didn't mention
you were the target
29
00:01:01,613 --> 00:01:03,680
of a failed
assassination attempt
30
00:01:03,682 --> 00:01:05,949
which left a woman
named Sabine dead,
31
00:01:05,951 --> 00:01:09,486
and you more empty on the inside
than you already were.
32
00:01:11,089 --> 00:01:12,789
How did you find out?
33
00:01:12,791 --> 00:01:16,659
Watson grew suspicious after
observing your eating habits.
34
00:01:19,498 --> 00:01:23,566
I don't speak of it because
I find the matter painful.
35
00:01:24,836 --> 00:01:26,369
Sabine and I were...
36
00:01:26,371 --> 00:01:28,371
very close.
37
00:01:28,373 --> 00:01:29,773
You also failed to mention
that whoever
38
00:01:29,775 --> 00:01:31,408
was behind
the attempt is still at large,
39
00:01:31,410 --> 00:01:33,877
and that you believe
another attempt is likely.
40
00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:37,414
Why else would you be
banking your own blood?
41
00:01:37,416 --> 00:01:40,483
By insinuating yourself
into our lives
42
00:01:40,485 --> 00:01:42,419
without disclosing any of this
43
00:01:42,421 --> 00:01:44,788
and without sharing
whatever intelligence you have
44
00:01:44,790 --> 00:01:47,390
so that we might implement
our own precautions,
45
00:01:47,392 --> 00:01:49,459
you've placed us in danger.
46
00:01:49,461 --> 00:01:52,228
Well, it's nice to see
that my well-being
47
00:01:52,230 --> 00:01:54,731
is essential
to your concerns as ever.
48
00:01:55,934 --> 00:01:59,102
Joan's deductions
are only partly correct.
49
00:01:59,104 --> 00:02:01,538
It's true someone
tried to kill me.
50
00:02:01,540 --> 00:02:03,840
That should come
as no surprise.
51
00:02:03,842 --> 00:02:06,443
One makes...
one's share of enemies
52
00:02:06,445 --> 00:02:08,344
in my line of work.
53
00:02:08,346 --> 00:02:11,347
Where she and the truth
part ways
54
00:02:11,349 --> 00:02:15,452
is in the assumption
that I am presently in danger.
55
00:02:16,488 --> 00:02:19,622
Banking my blood is
a precaution.
56
00:02:19,624 --> 00:02:24,127
Complications from this type
of injury can flare up
57
00:02:24,129 --> 00:02:26,262
years down the road.
58
00:02:26,264 --> 00:02:29,098
I could be rushed
back into surgery at any time.
59
00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:32,469
As for your safety
and Joan's,
60
00:02:32,471 --> 00:02:35,772
the would-be assassin
has been dealt with.
61
00:02:35,774 --> 00:02:37,774
It's over.
62
00:02:39,144 --> 00:02:40,443
Well, you're lying,
so I'll just
63
00:02:40,445 --> 00:02:42,545
have to investigate
the matter myself.

Hey.

They ain't comin' home early,

Ah, just another failed attempt

to gather information
on my father's shooting.
82
00:04:27,058 --> 00:04:28,958
Okay, well,
let me help you with this.
83
00:04:30,095 --> 00:04:31,594
What happened to asking

your contacts at Scotland Yard?
85
00:04:33,164 --> 00:04:35,231
Scotland Yard have
been kept in the dark.
86
00:04:35,233 --> 00:04:36,466
Likewise the French police.
87
00:04:36,468 --> 00:04:38,301
It seems Father has
kept a tight lid
88
00:04:38,303 --> 00:04:39,536
on the investigation.
89
00:04:39,538 --> 00:04:40,803
So you decided to try beating
90
00:04:40,805 --> 00:04:42,839
the answers out of someone?
91
00:04:42,841 --> 00:04:44,974
I touched base with a contact
inside a mercenary group
92
00:04:44,976 --> 00:04:46,376
that Father sometimes employs.
93
00:04:46,378 --> 00:04:48,044
I had to leave
my phone at home,
94
00:04:48,046 --> 00:04:49,245
because she's sensitive
95
00:04:49,247 --> 00:04:51,080
about the presence
of microphones.
96
00:04:52,484 --> 00:04:55,084
A woman did this to you?
97
00:04:55,086 --> 00:04:58,488
A highly trained woman.
98
00:04:58,490 --> 00:04:59,923
Well, it doesn't look like
99
00:04:59,925 --> 00:05:01,891
she wanted
to touch base with you.
100
00:05:01,893 --> 00:05:03,860
Quite the contrary.
101
00:05:09,034 --> 00:05:11,768
Some of this isn't blood.
102
00:05:12,904 --> 00:05:14,337
It's lipstick.
103
00:05:14,339 --> 00:05:16,272
And you smell like perfume.
104
00:05:17,976 --> 00:05:21,644
Were you in a fight,
or were you having sex?
105
00:05:21,646 --> 00:05:24,213
The two aren't
mutually exclusive.
106
00:05:29,087 --> 00:05:32,121
Anyway, I'm confident her
employers are also in the dark.
107
00:05:32,123 --> 00:05:33,856
Well, while you
were sparring,
108
00:05:33,858 --> 00:05:35,558
you missed a call.
109
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,160
I'll check my voice mail.
110
00:05:37,162 --> 00:05:40,196
No need. It was
one of the counselors
111
00:05:40,198 --> 00:05:42,465
at Hemdale-- Gene Winnick.
112
00:05:42,467 --> 00:05:44,701
When he couldn't reach
you, he called me.
113
00:05:44,703 --> 00:05:45,902
I remember him.
114
00:05:45,904 --> 00:05:47,470
He's a nice bloke.
115
00:05:47,472 --> 00:05:49,138
He wanted us to contact
a friend of us,
116
00:05:49,140 --> 00:05:52,041
a woman who runs a halfway house
on the Lower East Side.
117
00:05:52,043 --> 00:05:55,244
She thinks she has information
about a murder.
118
00:05:58,917 --> 00:06:01,551
Are your residents
mostly men in recovery?
119
00:06:01,553 --> 00:06:04,587
We also have a lot of parolees
who have been released
120
00:06:04,589 --> 00:06:06,656
to transitional housing;
some homeless, too.
121
00:06:06,658 --> 00:06:10,360
You said you knew
something about a murder.
122
00:06:10,362 --> 00:06:12,962
His name was Dennis Hicks.
123
00:06:12,964 --> 00:06:16,699
He was shot in his apartment
in Queens two weeks ago.
124
00:06:16,701 --> 00:06:18,935
The police think
he was killed by robbers.
125
00:06:18,937 --> 00:06:21,037
But you think otherwise?
126
00:06:22,273 --> 00:06:23,740
Let's go to my office.
127
00:06:23,742 --> 00:06:27,143
Fairbridge University--
you've heard of it?
128
00:06:27,145 --> 00:06:29,112
They have ads
all over the city.
129
00:06:29,114 --> 00:06:31,714
And they've been
in the news a lot lately.
130
00:06:31,716 --> 00:06:33,950
Government is cracking down
on for-profit colleges,
131
00:06:33,952 --> 00:06:36,419
and Fairbridge's name
comes up a lot.
132
00:06:36,421 --> 00:06:37,787
They're being investigated
133
00:06:37,789 --> 00:06:40,490
by the Department of Education
right now.
134
00:06:40,492 --> 00:06:42,458
Long list of accusations,
135
00:06:42,460 --> 00:06:45,428
including
illegal recruiting tactics.
136
00:06:45,430 --> 00:06:48,231
Since federal loans make up
most of their income,
137
00:06:48,233 --> 00:06:51,367
if it doesn't go their way,
they get shut down.
138
00:06:51,369 --> 00:06:54,637
Dennis was a recruiter
for Fairbridge.
139
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:57,573
He was about to testify
as a whistle-blower.
140
00:06:57,575 --> 00:06:59,676
That's why they killed him.
141
00:06:59,678 --> 00:07:01,210
Or so you believe.
142
00:07:01,212 --> 00:07:03,479
Uh, so what's your
connection to all of this
143
00:07:03,481 --> 00:07:05,848
beyond Dennis Hicks
being someone you knew?
144
00:07:05,850 --> 00:07:08,084
Fairbridge University owns us.
145
00:07:08,086 --> 00:07:11,120
So why would a college
want to own a halfway house?
146
00:07:11,122 --> 00:07:13,423
Because we're a source
of warm bodies
147
00:07:13,425 --> 00:07:15,124
and social security numbers--
148
00:07:15,126 --> 00:07:17,827
and that's pretty much
all they care about.
149
00:07:20,365 --> 00:07:22,999
Five years ago,
we were hurting for cash.
150
00:07:23,001 --> 00:07:25,001
When Fairbridge
offered to buy us,
151
00:07:25,003 --> 00:07:27,270
even I thought
it was a good idea.
152
00:07:27,272 --> 00:07:29,639
Turns out we let
the devil in the door.
153
00:07:29,641 --> 00:07:31,374
Ever since, the school's
154
00:07:31,376 --> 00:07:33,643
been aggressively
recruiting our residents.
155
00:07:33,645 --> 00:07:35,978
And I'm not allowed
to do anything about it.
156
00:07:35,980 --> 00:07:37,413
Um...
157
00:07:37,415 --> 00:07:39,716
forgive our ignorance--
my partner and I tend
158
00:07:39,718 --> 00:07:41,451
to think of higher education
as being a good thing,
159
00:07:41,453 --> 00:07:43,152
so what is so bad
about people
160
00:07:43,154 --> 00:07:44,320
who are trying
to turn their lives around
161
00:07:44,322 --> 00:07:45,555
going to college?
162
00:07:45,557 --> 00:07:47,056
If they were getting
a real education
163
00:07:47,058 --> 00:07:49,258
and if there was
real financial support for them,
164
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:50,693
I'd be all for it.
165
00:07:50,695 --> 00:07:53,062
But with this,
they're flat-out lied to.
166
00:07:53,064 --> 00:07:55,231
Recruiters promise degrees
167
00:07:55,233 --> 00:07:56,766
that the school
doesn't even offer,
168
00:07:56,768 --> 00:07:59,569
and help with job placement
that they never give.
169
00:07:59,571 --> 00:08:01,237
They'll say anything
to get people to sign
170
00:08:01,239 --> 00:08:03,439
on the dotted line.
And in this case,
171
00:08:03,441 --> 00:08:06,375
the dotted lines are
on student loan applications.
172
00:08:06,377 --> 00:08:09,579
The school gets its money,
and when my guys get out
173
00:08:09,581 --> 00:08:12,415
or drop out, they're
just as unemployable as ever,
174
00:08:12,417 --> 00:08:14,083
only now they're buried in debt.
175
00:08:14,085 --> 00:08:17,253
And whatever money they do make
is seized by collectors.
176
00:08:17,255 --> 00:08:18,788
And we all know
how helpful that is
177
00:08:18,790 --> 00:08:20,123
when you're trying
to get your life
178
00:08:20,125 --> 00:08:21,991
back on track.
179
00:08:21,993 --> 00:08:24,393
I've assembled a list of cases
180
00:08:24,395 --> 00:08:26,929
that I'm presenting
to the D.O.E.
181
00:08:26,931 --> 00:08:28,765
Vulnerable people
182
00:08:28,767 --> 00:08:30,166
who I promised to help
183
00:08:30,168 --> 00:08:32,869
who have been criminally
deceived by Fairbridge.
184
00:08:32,871 --> 00:08:34,771
Now, I've talked
to the police,
185
00:08:34,773 --> 00:08:36,973
but they just think
I'm crazy.
186
00:08:37,909 --> 00:08:40,777
A good man's been murdered.
187
00:08:40,779 --> 00:08:43,513
So... what do you say?
188
00:08:43,515 --> 00:08:46,015
Will you look into it?
189
00:08:48,386 --> 00:08:50,787
It says here Dennis Hicks
lived in Astoria.
190
00:08:50,789 --> 00:08:52,221
That's the 116.
191
00:08:52,223 --> 00:08:54,490
We could reach out
to whoever caught the case,
192
00:08:54,492 --> 00:08:55,925
at least see where it stands.
193
00:08:55,927 --> 00:08:57,627
Assuming there's
a case left to see.
194
00:08:57,629 --> 00:08:59,529
Crime scene's two weeks old.
195
00:08:59,531 --> 00:09:02,832
Body's probably
in the ground already.
196
00:09:02,834 --> 00:09:04,467
Ooh.
197
00:09:04,469 --> 00:09:06,536
You remember Lukas Muller,
the, uh, Interpol agent?
198
00:09:06,538 --> 00:09:07,904
Sure.
199
00:09:07,906 --> 00:09:09,605
He got us information
on that Swiss bank account
200
00:09:09,607 --> 00:09:11,474
a few weeks ago.
My father pays him
201
00:09:11,476 --> 00:09:13,843
for such help-- now, if he
was in the old man's pocket
202
00:09:13,845 --> 00:09:17,146
two years ago, stands to reason
he was asked to investigate
203
00:09:17,148 --> 00:09:19,315
the shooting which cost
Sabine Raoult her life.
204
00:09:19,317 --> 00:09:21,350
Well, you're assuming
there was an investigation.
205
00:09:21,352 --> 00:09:23,252
Your father may know
exactly who came after him.
206
00:09:23,254 --> 00:09:24,854
And then discreetly
207
00:09:24,856 --> 00:09:26,355
handled the matter himself? No.
208
00:09:26,357 --> 00:09:29,025
He was lying when he said
the matter was resolved.
209
00:09:29,027 --> 00:09:31,994
Anyway, I reached out to Muller
several times; no response.
210
00:09:31,996 --> 00:09:34,463
But my contact
at Interpol's New York office
211
00:09:34,465 --> 00:09:36,966
has just told me
he's in town for a conference.
212
00:09:36,968 --> 00:09:38,634
So while
I'm looking into this,
213
00:09:38,636 --> 00:09:41,470
are you gonna fight Muller
or are you gonna sleep with him?
214
00:09:41,472 --> 00:09:43,406
You get any pushback at the 116,
215
00:09:43,408 --> 00:09:45,441
just remind their lieutenant
that he owes me.
216
00:09:45,443 --> 00:09:48,544
I helped get his two-timing
son-in-law deported.
217
00:09:52,217 --> 00:09:55,151
Body was found
on the floor over there.
218
00:09:55,153 --> 00:09:58,454
Three rounds
from a nine-millimeter.
219
00:09:58,456 --> 00:10:02,558
Looks like the intruders
took the stereo, Xbox...
220
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:05,027
some things off the counter.
221
00:10:05,029 --> 00:10:06,863
Apartment's paid up
for the month,
222
00:10:06,865 --> 00:10:11,133
so the landlord gave the family
time to clean it out.
223
00:10:11,135 --> 00:10:13,903
I got to ask:
why does Major Crimes
224
00:10:13,905 --> 00:10:16,873
need a consultant
to go over all this?
225
00:10:16,875 --> 00:10:18,207
I'm not checking your work.
226
00:10:18,209 --> 00:10:19,775
A friend of the victim
asked us to take a look.
227
00:10:19,777 --> 00:10:21,911
You might have spoken
to her-- Lily Cooper.
228
00:10:21,913 --> 00:10:24,847
The one who thinks Mr. Hick's
employers had him killed?
229
00:10:24,849 --> 00:10:27,416
And the five other homes that
were broken into that night,
230
00:10:27,418 --> 00:10:29,285
they do all that as... cover?
231
00:10:30,788 --> 00:10:33,122
All the break-ins happen
between here and 30th Avenue,
232
00:10:33,124 --> 00:10:34,357
all within a couple of hours.
233
00:10:34,359 --> 00:10:36,425
And there were no witnesses?
234
00:10:36,427 --> 00:10:38,261
The crew that did it got
in and out of the other spots
235
00:10:38,263 --> 00:10:39,962
without running into
any residents-- Hicks was...
236
00:10:39,964 --> 00:10:41,163
unlucky.
237
00:10:41,165 --> 00:10:43,232
I think you're right.
238
00:10:43,234 --> 00:10:45,167
Not about Hicks
being unlucky...
239
00:10:45,169 --> 00:10:48,971
but about the killer not staging
the five other break-ins.
240
00:10:48,973 --> 00:10:52,341
I don't think what happened here
was connected to those.
241
00:10:53,745 --> 00:10:56,512
Look at the last names
of all the other families.
242
00:10:56,514 --> 00:10:57,980
They're all Russian.
243
00:10:57,982 --> 00:11:00,383
There's a lot of Russians
in this neighborhood.
244
00:11:00,385 --> 00:11:02,518
Yes. But if you exclude Hicks,
245
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:03,953
the crew hit only Russians.
246
00:11:03,955 --> 00:11:05,388
There's a
Russian Orthodox church
247
00:11:05,390 --> 00:11:06,689
just a few blocks away.
248
00:11:06,691 --> 00:11:08,190
And the night of the break-ins
249
00:11:08,192 --> 00:11:10,426
was also the Eve
of the Epiphany.
250
00:11:10,428 --> 00:11:12,028
The what?
If the thieves had
251
00:11:12,030 --> 00:11:14,263
an association with the church,
they would have known
252
00:11:14,265 --> 00:11:15,731
which families were
attending services that night.
253
00:11:15,733 --> 00:11:17,133
That would explain
254
00:11:17,135 --> 00:11:19,168
how they only broke
into homes that were empty.
255
00:11:20,838 --> 00:11:23,539
That's one of the homes
that was hit, right?
256
00:11:23,541 --> 00:11:24,807
Yeah.
257
00:11:24,809 --> 00:11:26,442
And that apartment
and this one
258
00:11:26,444 --> 00:11:28,344
can look right
into each other.
259
00:11:28,346 --> 00:11:29,845
And according to this,
260
00:11:29,847 --> 00:11:32,481
they didn't take very much
from that one.
261
00:11:32,483 --> 00:11:34,283
Maybe because they
left in a hurry.
262
00:11:34,285 --> 00:11:36,686
Because they heard gunshots
coming from over here
263
00:11:36,688 --> 00:11:40,089
and figured... the police
were on their way.
264
00:11:40,091 --> 00:11:43,125
Nobody from that building
saw the shooter coming or going,
265
00:11:43,127 --> 00:11:45,561
but maybe the thieves did.
266
00:12:05,483 --> 00:12:09,452
♪ ♪
267
00:12:16,127 --> 00:12:18,127
You remember me.
268
00:12:18,129 --> 00:12:19,595
I have nothing to say to you.
269
00:12:19,597 --> 00:12:21,130
Please leave me alone.
270
00:12:21,132 --> 00:12:23,499
I anticipated you
having reservations
271
00:12:23,501 --> 00:12:25,835
about me approaching you
in public-- it might expose
272
00:12:25,837 --> 00:12:27,003
your arrangement
with my father.
273
00:12:27,005 --> 00:12:28,070
That's why I chose
274
00:12:28,072 --> 00:12:29,505
so private a setting.
275
00:12:29,507 --> 00:12:30,873
Don't worry
about the cameras.
276
00:12:30,875 --> 00:12:34,543
I disabled them
a short while ago.
277
00:12:37,081 --> 00:12:40,249
As you may be aware,
there was an attempt on his life
278
00:12:40,251 --> 00:12:42,184
just under two years ago--
I'm trying to ascertain
279
00:12:42,186 --> 00:12:43,953
to what degree the matter
was investigated.
280
00:12:43,955 --> 00:12:45,254
I imagine you are.
281
00:12:45,256 --> 00:12:46,756
Trying to figure out
how much he knows?
282
00:12:46,758 --> 00:12:48,424
I've given up asking
what he knows,
283
00:12:48,426 --> 00:12:49,492
so I'm asking what you know.
284
00:12:49,494 --> 00:12:50,960
Ask someone else.
285
00:12:50,962 --> 00:12:53,262
Mr. Muller, I have friends
here that my father
286
00:12:53,264 --> 00:12:54,430
may be placing in danger.
287
00:12:54,432 --> 00:12:55,931
What is your game?
288
00:12:55,933 --> 00:12:57,600
My "game"?
289
00:12:57,602 --> 00:13:00,236
On second thought,
I don't want to know.
290
00:13:00,238 --> 00:13:01,871
I have a family.
291
00:13:01,873 --> 00:13:03,239
I have a wife.
292
00:13:03,241 --> 00:13:05,641
You and your father
can both go to hell.
293
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,814
Every family
whose home was hit
294
00:13:11,816 --> 00:13:15,217
had RSVP'd to a dinner
that night at the church.
295
00:13:15,219 --> 00:13:18,721
So we looked at
who had access to those RSVPs.
296
00:13:18,723 --> 00:13:22,291
Turns out the leader
of your little gang-- Roland--
297
00:13:22,293 --> 00:13:23,926
he works for the caterer.
298
00:13:23,928 --> 00:13:26,729
He also had a record,
so we started with him.
299
00:13:26,731 --> 00:13:29,632
He gave the rest
of you up.
300
00:13:29,634 --> 00:13:32,268
He's not "the leader."
301
00:13:32,270 --> 00:13:35,171
No? That's funny--
he definitely described you
302
00:13:35,173 --> 00:13:37,440
as a minor player.
303
00:13:37,442 --> 00:13:39,842
No, seriously--
you should be thanking him.
304
00:13:39,844 --> 00:13:41,277
The only reason
305
00:13:41,279 --> 00:13:43,045
you're sitting here
talking to us,
306
00:13:43,047 --> 00:13:44,180
the only reason the DA
307
00:13:44,182 --> 00:13:46,015
is offering you
a deal and not him,
308
00:13:46,017 --> 00:13:48,517
is that he said you were the one
keeping watch out the window.
309
00:13:48,519 --> 00:13:50,920
See, we're a lot
more interested
310
00:13:50,922 --> 00:13:52,888
in the homicide
you saw across the street
311
00:13:52,890 --> 00:13:54,690
than we are in you.
312
00:13:55,860 --> 00:13:58,527
So Roland would do
more time than me?
313
00:13:58,529 --> 00:14:00,162
Guaranteed.
314
00:14:01,299 --> 00:14:03,866
I was looking
out the window.
315
00:14:03,868 --> 00:14:05,968
There was
a scary looking guy--
316
00:14:05,970 --> 00:14:09,972
shaved head, Hispanic, tattoos.
317
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:12,775
Had his gun out like this.
318
00:14:12,777 --> 00:14:16,412
And the other guy's
begging for his life.
319
00:14:16,414 --> 00:14:20,449
And he just plugs him
full of bullets. Pop! Pop!
320
00:14:20,451 --> 00:14:21,984
- Pop!
- Okay, first let's get
321
00:14:21,986 --> 00:14:23,986
your hand out of my face.
322
00:14:23,988 --> 00:14:26,322
Then let's back up...
Hey. That lead on the witness
323
00:14:26,324 --> 00:14:28,624
paid off-- he's giving Marcus
a statement right now.
324
00:14:28,626 --> 00:14:31,393
After this, we'll have him
sit down with a sketch artist.
325
00:14:31,395 --> 00:14:32,895
Where are you?
326
00:14:32,897 --> 00:14:33,896
I've returned
to Lily Cooper's office
327
00:14:33,898 --> 00:14:35,631
at the halfway house.
328
00:14:35,633 --> 00:14:38,267
Oh. So once we have a sketch,
I'll forward it to you.
329
00:14:38,269 --> 00:14:40,302
Maybe Lily can identify the guy.
330
00:14:40,304 --> 00:14:42,938
That sketch might be
more important than ever.
331
00:14:42,940 --> 00:14:44,974
Lily won't be
identifying anyone.
332
00:14:44,976 --> 00:14:46,842
I'm here
because one of the detectives
333
00:14:46,844 --> 00:14:48,711
found my card on her desk.
334
00:14:48,713 --> 00:14:51,247
She's been strangled.
335
00:14:56,269 --> 00:14:58,254
Lily Cooper had
a locked strongbox
336
00:14:58,255 --> 00:14:59,588
bolted inside her desk.
337
00:14:59,590 --> 00:15:00,789
It's where her staff
kept contraband
338
00:15:00,791 --> 00:15:02,424
they confiscated from residents.
339
00:15:02,426 --> 00:15:04,359
Staffer who discovered the body
found it like that.
340
00:15:04,361 --> 00:15:06,261
Whoever killed
Lily wanted it to look
341
00:15:06,263 --> 00:15:08,497
like it was over
the contents of the box.
342
00:15:08,499 --> 00:15:09,931
And you don't buy it?
343
00:15:09,933 --> 00:15:12,334
When Sherlock and I went
to see her yesterday,
344
00:15:12,336 --> 00:15:13,902
she showed us
a file of case histories
345
00:15:13,904 --> 00:15:15,771
she was about to present
to the D.O.E.
346
00:15:15,773 --> 00:15:17,439
When Sherlock went
back to her office,
347
00:15:17,441 --> 00:15:18,840
the file was gone.
348
00:15:18,842 --> 00:15:20,475
She thought that
Dennis Hicks was murdered
349
00:15:20,477 --> 00:15:22,277
because he was cooperating
in a case
350
00:15:22,279 --> 00:15:24,579
against Fairbridge University--
we think
351
00:15:24,581 --> 00:15:26,548
she may have been killed
for the same reason.
352
00:15:26,550 --> 00:15:28,717
And Holmes? Where's he?
353
00:15:28,719 --> 00:15:30,285
He's dealing
with a family thing.
354
00:15:31,221 --> 00:15:32,287
You don't want to know.
355
00:15:32,289 --> 00:15:33,288
So what now?
356
00:15:33,290 --> 00:15:34,723
I take it you have something
357
00:15:34,725 --> 00:15:36,958
more specific in mind
than "arrest a college."
358
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,794
Well, we have
a finest message out
359
00:15:38,796 --> 00:15:40,162
with the sketch of
Dennis Hicks's shooter,
360
00:15:40,164 --> 00:15:42,431
and detectives
are re-canvassing both scenes.
361
00:15:42,433 --> 00:15:44,599
We'll see if anyone
recognizes the face.
362
00:15:44,601 --> 00:15:46,902
Even though we're pretty sure
he's just a hired gun.
363
00:15:46,904 --> 00:15:48,603
Fairbridge's hired gun?
364
00:15:48,605 --> 00:15:51,907
Well, this is the CEO
of Fairbridge University,
365
00:15:51,909 --> 00:15:54,810
Wilson Trager--
he is the university.
366
00:15:54,812 --> 00:15:56,244
It's privately owned
by him.
367
00:15:56,246 --> 00:15:57,546
No one stands to lose more
368
00:15:57,548 --> 00:15:59,481
if the D.O.E. rules
against them.
369
00:15:59,483 --> 00:16:02,350
Then I guess I know
your next stop.
370
00:16:07,391 --> 00:16:09,291
Detective Bell.
371
00:16:09,293 --> 00:16:11,193
Miss Watson.
372
00:16:11,195 --> 00:16:13,428
Wilson Trager.
Yeah, thanks for seeing us.
373
00:16:13,430 --> 00:16:15,430
Of course.
I assume you're here
374
00:16:15,432 --> 00:16:17,732
because of the murder that took
place a couple of weeks ago.
375
00:16:17,734 --> 00:16:19,468
The poor guy who works
in the call center or something?
376
00:16:19,470 --> 00:16:20,669
His name was
377
00:16:20,671 --> 00:16:22,704
Dennis Hicks--
he was VP of Recruiting.
378
00:16:22,706 --> 00:16:23,805
Right. Sure.
379
00:16:23,807 --> 00:16:25,140
Actually,
380
00:16:25,142 --> 00:16:26,741
two of your employees
have been murdered.
381
00:16:26,743 --> 00:16:28,777
A woman named Lily Cooper
was killed yesterday.
382
00:16:28,779 --> 00:16:31,046
She was the director
of East River Hope House,
383
00:16:31,048 --> 00:16:32,547
which you own.
384
00:16:32,549 --> 00:16:34,916
Oh, my God, that's... terrible.
385
00:16:34,918 --> 00:16:36,218
We're thinking
there's a connection.
386
00:16:36,220 --> 00:16:38,854
We were hoping we could ask you
a few questions?
387
00:16:38,856 --> 00:16:40,021
Actually,
Mr. Trager was just leaving
388
00:16:40,023 --> 00:16:41,256
for an important meeting.
389
00:16:41,258 --> 00:16:42,524
It can't be rescheduled.
390
00:16:42,526 --> 00:16:43,725
I'm so sorry.
391
00:16:43,727 --> 00:16:45,193
But I've asked Josh and Bill
392
00:16:45,195 --> 00:16:46,528
to help you in any way they can.
393
00:16:46,530 --> 00:16:47,963
Two people now?
394
00:16:47,965 --> 00:16:49,231
I want to know everything.
395
00:16:49,233 --> 00:16:50,398
And, uh...
396
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,600
you know, remind me
397
00:16:51,602 --> 00:16:53,168
to send something
to the families.
398
00:16:53,170 --> 00:16:55,036
Thank you for everything
that you're doing.
399
00:16:55,038 --> 00:16:56,271
Yes, Mr. Trager, we...
Uh, we can
400
00:16:56,273 --> 00:16:58,273
answer your questions.
Please,
401
00:16:58,275 --> 00:17:00,675
right this way.
402
00:17:02,613 --> 00:17:04,212
Can we hang on to this?
403
00:17:04,214 --> 00:17:05,981
We'll show it to Mr. Trager
404
00:17:05,983 --> 00:17:07,816
and obviously let you know
if it sparks anything.
405
00:17:07,818 --> 00:17:09,918
Again, we were hoping
to put our questions
406
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,586
to Mr. Trager ourselves.
407
00:17:11,588 --> 00:17:13,121
And why would that
be necessary?
408
00:17:13,123 --> 00:17:14,389
Because we're trying
409
00:17:14,391 --> 00:17:15,457
to solve two murders,
410
00:17:15,459 --> 00:17:16,925
and both victims were assisting
411
00:17:16,927 --> 00:17:19,160
a D.O.E. investigation
that could cost him millions.
412
00:17:19,162 --> 00:17:20,395
We...
Wait.
413
00:17:20,397 --> 00:17:22,230
So... in so many words,
414
00:17:22,232 --> 00:17:23,865
you came here
to accuse Mr. Trager
415
00:17:23,867 --> 00:17:25,166
of hiring an assassin?
416
00:17:25,168 --> 00:17:28,870
"Accuse" is a strong word
at this stage.
417
00:17:28,872 --> 00:17:30,672
But you're hardly here
for a friendly chat.
418
00:17:30,674 --> 00:17:33,208
And you wonder why you're
talking to us instead of him.
419
00:17:33,210 --> 00:17:35,410
Does he have
something to hide?
420
00:17:36,980 --> 00:17:38,380
We'll ask Mr. Trager if he knows
421
00:17:38,382 --> 00:17:40,348
anything about either
of the victims.
422
00:17:40,350 --> 00:17:42,751
Though based on what we
all just saw in the lobby,
423
00:17:42,753 --> 00:17:44,419
I'd say he barely knew
they existed.
424
00:17:44,421 --> 00:17:46,421
As for the D.O.E.
investigation,
425
00:17:46,423 --> 00:17:48,290
we've got it handled,
I promise you.
426
00:17:48,292 --> 00:17:50,959
But look, uh... you heard
Mr. Trager tell us
427
00:17:50,961 --> 00:17:54,462
to help you in any way we can--
we'll give you full access
428
00:17:54,464 --> 00:17:57,132
to his secretarial staff,
his date book, his computer.
429
00:17:57,134 --> 00:17:59,634
You find any evidence
that he or anyone else here
430
00:17:59,636 --> 00:18:02,270
hired an assassin,
more power to you.
431
00:18:14,151 --> 00:18:16,251
Lukas Muller is in New York.
432
00:18:16,253 --> 00:18:18,353
I paid him a visit yesterday.
433
00:18:18,355 --> 00:18:19,854
Why would you...
434
00:18:19,856 --> 00:18:21,456
I was surprised,
and indeed confused,
435
00:18:21,458 --> 00:18:23,291
by the way that he treated me.
436
00:18:23,293 --> 00:18:25,460
During our one
prior interaction,
437
00:18:25,462 --> 00:18:27,529
I had noticed a baseline
nervousness to the man,
438
00:18:27,531 --> 00:18:29,397
but that could be written off
to circumstance.
439
00:18:29,399 --> 00:18:30,699
He was, after all,
sharing secrets
440
00:18:30,701 --> 00:18:32,601
which could have cost him
his job.
441
00:18:32,603 --> 00:18:35,303
I'm the son of the man
who lines his pockets,
442
00:18:35,305 --> 00:18:38,540
so yesterday I expected him
to treat me as a friend.
443
00:18:38,542 --> 00:18:40,742
Instead, he treated me
like an enemy.
444
00:18:40,744 --> 00:18:43,545
More precisely,
a threat.
445
00:18:44,448 --> 00:18:46,348
I know, Father.
446
00:18:46,350 --> 00:18:47,983
Know what?
447
00:18:47,985 --> 00:18:50,819
Why you never mentioned
your brush with death.
448
00:18:50,821 --> 00:18:52,821
Why you never asked me,
449
00:18:52,823 --> 00:18:55,357
the finest detective you know,
for assistance.
450
00:18:57,294 --> 00:19:01,496
You believe that I'm the man
who tried to kill you.
451
00:19:02,399 --> 00:19:04,299
It's made me wonder
452
00:19:04,301 --> 00:19:06,601
why you...
really came to New York.
453
00:19:06,603 --> 00:19:09,237
Were you just following up
on your suspicions,
454
00:19:09,239 --> 00:19:12,240
or did you intend to do me harm?
455
00:19:14,044 --> 00:19:16,478
I did, at one time, suspect you.
456
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,848
But I've long since
moved off the notion.
457
00:19:19,850 --> 00:19:22,450
I'm satisfied that
you weren't involved.
458
00:19:22,452 --> 00:19:24,886
Though Muller,
apparently, is not.
459
00:19:24,888 --> 00:19:28,289
You and I have had
our differences...
460
00:19:28,291 --> 00:19:30,325
to put it mildly...
461
00:19:30,327 --> 00:19:33,194
but I've always thought
that at the very least
462
00:19:33,196 --> 00:19:35,730
you knew the content
of my character.
463
00:19:37,768 --> 00:19:40,402
If you don't know,
without question,
464
00:19:40,404 --> 00:19:43,138
that I'm not a killer...
465
00:19:43,140 --> 00:19:47,942
then there really is no
foundation for us to build on.
466
00:19:47,944 --> 00:19:49,344
This...
467
00:19:49,346 --> 00:19:52,647
experiment of ours
has reached its end.
468
00:19:52,649 --> 00:19:56,551
If for no other reason than to
preserve my safety and Watson's.
469
00:19:56,553 --> 00:19:59,120
I do hope you'll agree.
470
00:20:00,524 --> 00:20:03,758
Oh. And if you have
any lingering doubts,
471
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,994
here's how you can be certain
472
00:20:05,996 --> 00:20:09,030
I'm not the one
who tried to kill you.
473
00:20:09,032 --> 00:20:11,132
You're alive.
474
00:20:32,289 --> 00:20:33,922
Hey, I didn't you were back.
475
00:20:33,924 --> 00:20:35,757
I was down in my office.
476
00:20:35,759 --> 00:20:38,760
That's the honey we got for
your father when he comes over.
477
00:20:38,762 --> 00:20:40,261
So it is.
478
00:20:40,263 --> 00:20:44,566
I guess that means
the conversation went poorly.
479
00:20:44,568 --> 00:20:47,368
I was right-- two years ago
he thought I was behind
480
00:20:47,370 --> 00:20:49,637
his near murder.
And now?
481
00:20:49,639 --> 00:20:52,507
Now, according to him,
I am a former suspect;
482
00:20:52,509 --> 00:20:56,244
I'm not at the center
of an elaborate revenge plot.
483
00:20:56,246 --> 00:20:58,179
You believe him?
I do.
484
00:20:58,181 --> 00:21:00,882
But I also think
I was right two weeks ago.
485
00:21:00,884 --> 00:21:02,484
The matter's not resolved.
486
00:21:02,486 --> 00:21:04,119
The culprit is still at large.
487
00:21:04,121 --> 00:21:06,020
The good news is,
488
00:21:06,022 --> 00:21:08,223
we need no longer fear about
being in Father's proximity,
489
00:21:08,225 --> 00:21:11,426
because we will no longer be
in his proximity.
490
00:21:12,629 --> 00:21:14,429
I'm sorry.
491
00:21:14,431 --> 00:21:16,631
Don't be sorry.
He and I have gone years
492
00:21:16,633 --> 00:21:19,167
without talking in the past;
it's an arrangement that works.
493
00:21:19,169 --> 00:21:21,603
Any luck,
we'll be returning to it soon.
494
00:21:21,605 --> 00:21:24,539
How went your meeting
with Wilson Trager?
495
00:21:24,541 --> 00:21:25,940
It's hard to say.
496
00:21:25,942 --> 00:21:27,842
It was more of a non-meeting
than a meeting.
497
00:21:27,844 --> 00:21:29,811
He blew past us
and stuck us
498
00:21:29,813 --> 00:21:31,146
with a couple of lawyers,
and then
499
00:21:31,148 --> 00:21:32,647
they gave us full access
to his life.
500
00:21:32,649 --> 00:21:34,516
Bank and travel records,
e-mails...
501
00:21:34,518 --> 00:21:36,451
Suggests confidence
we will find nothing.
502
00:21:36,453 --> 00:21:38,586
Well, I've been going
through all of it.
503
00:21:38,588 --> 00:21:40,622
So far, no mysterious
wire transfers
504
00:21:40,624 --> 00:21:42,690
or secret liaisons with hit men.
505
00:21:42,692 --> 00:21:45,360
But that's assuming that Trager
paid for everything himself.
506
00:21:45,362 --> 00:21:47,128
If he used
the college's money,
507
00:21:47,130 --> 00:21:49,364
it could take years
to find the trail.
508
00:21:52,169 --> 00:21:53,935
You're on speaker.
509
00:21:53,937 --> 00:21:55,970
That sketch
we've been showing around--
510
00:21:55,972 --> 00:21:58,273
some of the staff
at Lily Cooper's halfway house
511
00:21:58,275 --> 00:22:01,142
I.D.'d the guy-- Victor Nieves.
512
00:22:01,144 --> 00:22:03,545
He's an ex-con.
He lived there a few years ago.
513
00:22:03,547 --> 00:22:06,681
His parole officer had
a current address on file.
514
00:22:06,683 --> 00:22:08,116
We know
he's armed and dangerous.
515
00:22:08,118 --> 00:22:10,785
ESU is rolling now.
Marcus is with them.
516
00:22:10,787 --> 00:22:13,488
I'll let you know
if we find anything.
517
00:22:13,490 --> 00:22:15,690
I already told you.
518
00:22:15,692 --> 00:22:18,393
I don't know where Victor is.
519
00:22:18,395 --> 00:22:20,361
All right, well, when was
the last time you saw him?
520
00:22:21,431 --> 00:22:22,697
I don't know.
521
00:22:22,699 --> 00:22:24,766
Two days ago, maybe three?
522
00:22:26,636 --> 00:22:28,403
Mrs. Nieves,
523
00:22:28,405 --> 00:22:32,040
it was raining earlier today,
and those boots are still wet.
524
00:22:32,042 --> 00:22:34,776
Someone other than your husband
leave them here?
525
00:22:42,986 --> 00:22:45,854
Please.
526
00:22:45,856 --> 00:22:48,089
He's a good man.
527
00:22:49,759 --> 00:22:51,526
Don't hurt him.
528
00:22:51,528 --> 00:22:53,061
Hey, believe me,
529
00:22:53,063 --> 00:22:55,430
we'd all rather
keep things peaceful.
530
00:22:55,432 --> 00:22:57,398
But I'm not gonna lie to you.
531
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,334
Your husband's in trouble,
and we have to find him,
532
00:22:59,336 --> 00:23:02,170
so the best thing you can do
is help us bring him in.
533
00:23:02,172 --> 00:23:05,039
You have any idea
where he would have gone?
534
00:23:11,815 --> 00:23:13,381
Hey. What's your name?
535
00:23:13,383 --> 00:23:14,749
Mayra.
536
00:23:14,751 --> 00:23:16,150
Mayra?
537
00:23:16,152 --> 00:23:18,519
Castle Kingdom--
I know that place.
538
00:23:18,521 --> 00:23:20,855
My brother and I
used to go there.
539
00:23:20,857 --> 00:23:23,191
You go with your folks?
540
00:23:23,193 --> 00:23:25,059
What happened there?
541
00:23:25,061 --> 00:23:26,094
I fell.
542
00:23:26,096 --> 00:23:27,395
You fell at the park?
543
00:23:27,397 --> 00:23:28,596
Uh-huh.
544
00:23:28,598 --> 00:23:29,697
That's no fun.
545
00:23:29,699 --> 00:23:31,599
Here, let me fix that for you.
546
00:23:34,137 --> 00:23:36,971
That look more than
a day old to you?
547
00:23:39,476 --> 00:23:43,244
Mayra, when were you
at the park?
548
00:23:44,814 --> 00:23:45,947
Gregson.
549
00:23:45,949 --> 00:23:47,448
Yeah, it's me.
550
00:23:47,450 --> 00:23:49,284
Nieves's little girl
just alibied him
551
00:23:49,286 --> 00:23:51,653
for the second murder--
looks like the whole family was
552
00:23:51,655 --> 00:23:54,188
at an amusement park in South
Jersey yesterday until dark.
553
00:23:54,190 --> 00:23:55,790
The wife won't say either way,
554
00:23:55,792 --> 00:23:58,293
but I found a time stamp receipt
in the trash.
555
00:23:58,295 --> 00:23:59,594
I'm reaching out to the park
556
00:23:59,596 --> 00:24:01,329
to see if they
can pull surveillance.
557
00:24:01,331 --> 00:24:03,231
If the story checks out,
there's no way
558
00:24:03,233 --> 00:24:05,233
Nieves could've killed
Lily Cooper.
559
00:24:05,235 --> 00:24:06,334
That's pretty damn interesting.
560
00:24:06,336 --> 00:24:07,769
How so?
561
00:24:07,771 --> 00:24:09,837
I was about to call you.
562
00:24:09,839 --> 00:24:12,740
Victor Nieves
just showed up here.
563
00:24:12,742 --> 00:24:15,576
Turned himself in.
564
00:24:15,578 --> 00:24:18,513
He just confessed
to both murders.
565
00:24:26,543 --> 00:24:28,310
Hi.
566
00:24:36,887 --> 00:24:39,187
This took some finding on
the part of Lily Cooper's staff,
567
00:24:39,189 --> 00:24:43,258
but, uh... when I explained
what it was for, they obliged.
568
00:24:44,559 --> 00:24:47,026
That supposed
to make me crack?
569
00:24:47,028 --> 00:24:49,562
I already said I killed her.
570
00:24:49,564 --> 00:24:51,997
It's you people
who don't believe it.
571
00:24:51,999 --> 00:24:54,266
Oh, no, we know
you didn't kill her.
572
00:24:54,268 --> 00:24:57,002
We've already established that
at the time of her murder
573
00:24:57,004 --> 00:24:58,704
you were spinning
in an oversized teacup
574
00:24:58,706 --> 00:25:00,306
with your little girl.
575
00:25:01,909 --> 00:25:04,677
No, this photograph's not
for you, it's for me.
576
00:25:04,679 --> 00:25:07,413
I've never been a fan
of cutting deals.
577
00:25:07,415 --> 00:25:10,449
Plea bargains,
reduced sentences, mm-mm.
578
00:25:10,451 --> 00:25:12,985
I think they're
a necessary evil,
579
00:25:12,987 --> 00:25:15,388
a dilution of justice.
580
00:25:15,390 --> 00:25:17,590
I'm especially displeased
when they help murderers.
581
00:25:17,592 --> 00:25:20,092
And I do believe
that you're a murderer.
582
00:25:20,094 --> 00:25:21,794
The ballistics on the weapon
583
00:25:21,796 --> 00:25:23,229
that you surrendered
match the slugs
584
00:25:23,231 --> 00:25:24,964
pulled from Dennis Hicks.
585
00:25:24,966 --> 00:25:27,032
So...
586
00:25:27,034 --> 00:25:29,402
I don't want to help you.
587
00:25:29,404 --> 00:25:30,770
Mm-mm.
588
00:25:30,772 --> 00:25:32,071
But...
589
00:25:32,073 --> 00:25:33,939
she believed
that you were deserving
590
00:25:33,941 --> 00:25:36,075
of other people's help.
591
00:25:36,077 --> 00:25:37,810
She was an exemplary
human being.
592
00:25:37,812 --> 00:25:40,713
So, as I sit here and I've got
to try and persuade you
593
00:25:40,715 --> 00:25:43,783
to give up Wilson Trager
in exchange for a deal...
594
00:25:43,785 --> 00:25:45,684
it just, you know...
595
00:25:45,686 --> 00:25:48,687
helps me to remember her.
596
00:25:49,991 --> 00:25:52,291
Wilson who?
597
00:25:53,694 --> 00:25:56,862
In your parole record,
it seems like you were trying
598
00:25:56,864 --> 00:26:00,132
to walk the straight and narrow
after your release from prison.
599
00:26:00,134 --> 00:26:01,967
You completed
your high school diploma,
600
00:26:01,969 --> 00:26:03,969
you held a steady job,
601
00:26:03,971 --> 00:26:06,505
you enrolled at Fairbridge
to study computers...
602
00:26:06,507 --> 00:26:09,608
took out a student loan
for that. Yep.
603
00:26:09,610 --> 00:26:11,644
How much did you owe?
604
00:26:11,646 --> 00:26:14,380
75 grand.
605
00:26:14,382 --> 00:26:18,617
How much did Trager offer you
to murder Dennis Hicks?
606
00:26:18,619 --> 00:26:20,953
Hicks was my recruiter,
remember?
607
00:26:20,955 --> 00:26:23,055
He talked me
into going to Fairbridge.
608
00:26:23,057 --> 00:26:25,090
Fed me a bunch of lies.
609
00:26:25,092 --> 00:26:26,225
I killed him on my own.
610
00:26:26,227 --> 00:26:27,760
You also confessed
611
00:26:27,762 --> 00:26:30,763
to Lily Cooper's strangulation
on your own?
612
00:26:31,833 --> 00:26:33,365
Trager...
613
00:26:33,367 --> 00:26:35,468
paid you to kill Dennis Hicks,
614
00:26:35,470 --> 00:26:37,436
and then he paid you again
615
00:26:37,438 --> 00:26:40,806
to take the fall for
Lily Cooper's strangulation.
616
00:26:40,808 --> 00:26:43,943
Now, assuming that
he contracted that out as well,
617
00:26:43,945 --> 00:26:45,678
you're not only protecting him,
618
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,014
but you're protecting the person
who actually killed her.
619
00:26:49,016 --> 00:26:50,950
Why?
620
00:26:53,855 --> 00:26:56,522
'Cause I'm sure that guy
didn't have no choice, either.
621
00:26:57,525 --> 00:27:00,092
Why on earth
would you think that?
622
00:27:02,797 --> 00:27:04,630
Oh.
623
00:27:11,205 --> 00:27:12,972
Until last night,
624
00:27:12,974 --> 00:27:16,108
we were assuming Wilson Trager
only hired one killer.
625
00:27:16,110 --> 00:27:18,077
But when Victor Nieves'
confession to the murder
626
00:27:18,079 --> 00:27:19,812
of Lily Cooper
was punctured, we realized
627
00:27:19,814 --> 00:27:21,280
that there had to be two.
628
00:27:21,282 --> 00:27:22,314
Do you think
he's part of a team?
629
00:27:22,316 --> 00:27:25,050
More likely a collection
630
00:27:25,052 --> 00:27:27,286
of individuals
with similar problems.
631
00:27:27,288 --> 00:27:29,054
He seemed convinced
632
00:27:29,056 --> 00:27:31,957
he understood the second
killer's circumstances.
633
00:27:31,959 --> 00:27:36,095
Why? Because he believes their
circumstances to be the same.
634
00:27:36,097 --> 00:27:37,763
We've been
through Trager's life
635
00:27:37,765 --> 00:27:38,898
with a fine-tooth comb.
636
00:27:38,900 --> 00:27:40,399
Now, this guy doesn't have
637
00:27:40,401 --> 00:27:42,735
conventional criminal ties,
yet he managed to hire
638
00:27:42,737 --> 00:27:45,070
two different killers
in two weeks.
639
00:27:45,072 --> 00:27:46,539
It's possible
Nieves knows
640
00:27:46,541 --> 00:27:48,541
the identity
of Lily Cooper's murderer,
641
00:27:48,543 --> 00:27:51,310
but I think it's more likely
that he intuitively understood
642
00:27:51,312 --> 00:27:53,779
where Trager found
his second killer.
643
00:27:53,781 --> 00:27:55,814
He's getting them
from his own student rolls.
644
00:27:55,816 --> 00:27:57,316
His perch
645
00:27:57,318 --> 00:27:58,984
atop a for-profit college
gives him access
646
00:27:58,986 --> 00:28:02,755
to a unique list: individuals
who sought to improve
647
00:28:02,757 --> 00:28:05,291
their lot in life-- many of them
with criminal records--
648
00:28:05,293 --> 00:28:06,859
who now, thanks to him,
649
00:28:06,861 --> 00:28:09,528
are buckling under student loans
they cannot repay.
650
00:28:09,530 --> 00:28:11,263
This makes them ripe
for manipulation.
651
00:28:11,265 --> 00:28:13,732
We started wondering,
maybe these two murders
652
00:28:13,734 --> 00:28:16,035
weren't the only times
he solved his problems this way,
653
00:28:16,037 --> 00:28:17,770
so we looked
for other suspicious incidents
654
00:28:17,772 --> 00:28:19,204
in his past.
655
00:28:19,206 --> 00:28:21,373
About a year ago,
the college's main campus
656
00:28:21,375 --> 00:28:23,409
was being fined
for safety violations.
657
00:28:23,411 --> 00:28:25,477
The whole thing got dropped
658
00:28:25,479 --> 00:28:28,013
because of a fire in
the building inspector's office.
659
00:28:28,015 --> 00:28:30,015
All the inspection records
were lost,
660
00:28:30,017 --> 00:28:32,084
and the city had to start again.
661
00:28:32,086 --> 00:28:34,587
A year before that,
Trager wanted to buy
662
00:28:34,589 --> 00:28:36,855
a co-op on Central Park South.
663
00:28:36,857 --> 00:28:39,291
For whatever reason, the board
was about to reject him--
664
00:28:39,293 --> 00:28:42,094
until a swing vote was injured
in a hit-and-run.
665
00:28:42,096 --> 00:28:44,630
She resigned her spot, 'cause
she could no longer fulfill
666
00:28:44,632 --> 00:28:46,165
her duties, and the vote went
667
00:28:46,167 --> 00:28:48,434
- Trager's way.
- Now, if this guy
668
00:28:48,436 --> 00:28:50,903
isn't behind it all, he is
the luckiest innocent bystander
669
00:28:50,905 --> 00:28:52,871
in history.
All right, say you're right,
670
00:28:52,873 --> 00:28:56,008
say the guy's a gangster,
so how do we prove it?
671
00:28:56,010 --> 00:28:58,110
Victor Nieves
isn't gonna help us.
672
00:28:58,112 --> 00:28:59,979
Well, now that we know
what we're looking for,
673
00:28:59,981 --> 00:29:01,547
we can try and identify
other people
674
00:29:01,549 --> 00:29:03,115
that Trager coerced.
675
00:29:03,117 --> 00:29:04,683
Look through
the school's past students
676
00:29:04,685 --> 00:29:06,018
for people who fit the bill:
677
00:29:06,020 --> 00:29:07,753
ex-cons who defaulted
on their loans.
678
00:29:07,755 --> 00:29:09,822
Nieves's priors
were for burglary,
679
00:29:09,824 --> 00:29:11,991
so we're thinking Trager
may have chosen people
680
00:29:11,993 --> 00:29:15,294
based on their skills--
an arsonist for the office fire,
681
00:29:15,296 --> 00:29:17,596
a wheelman
for the hit-and-run.
682
00:29:17,598 --> 00:29:19,965
Nieves won't flip;
maybe someone else will.
683
00:29:19,967 --> 00:29:21,834
Fairbridge University
has got to have what,
684
00:29:21,836 --> 00:29:23,369
20,000 students?
685
00:29:23,371 --> 00:29:25,671
That's got to be hundreds
of ex-cons a year.
686
00:29:25,673 --> 00:29:28,407
You think we're looking
for a needle in a haystack.
687
00:29:28,409 --> 00:29:31,343
We are. Or at least
Watson and Marcus are.
688
00:29:32,213 --> 00:29:34,013
What are you gonna do?
689
00:29:34,015 --> 00:29:35,414
Well, I've always found
the best way
690
00:29:35,416 --> 00:29:37,683
to come at a haystack
is with a pitchfork.
691
00:29:37,685 --> 00:29:40,085
I'll see you on the tee
at 7:00 a.m.
692
00:29:40,087 --> 00:29:42,287
You know, I imagined
693
00:29:42,289 --> 00:29:43,956
you'd be the sort
to have a private entrance,
694
00:29:43,958 --> 00:29:45,858
and I'm not disappointed.
695
00:29:45,860 --> 00:29:47,092
Who are you?
696
00:29:47,094 --> 00:29:49,028
Uh, I-I mean you
no physical harm.
697
00:29:49,030 --> 00:29:50,663
My name is Sherlock Holmes.
698
00:29:50,665 --> 00:29:52,331
I'm a consulting detective.
699
00:29:52,333 --> 00:29:55,034
I believe you brushed off
my partner and her colleague
700
00:29:55,036 --> 00:29:56,568
in the lobby yesterday.
701
00:29:56,570 --> 00:29:59,538
Did their feelings get hurt,
so they sent you?
702
00:29:59,540 --> 00:30:01,340
No one sent me.
703
00:30:01,342 --> 00:30:03,876
I've missed the opportunity
to look you in the eye myself,
704
00:30:03,878 --> 00:30:06,045
and I thought it was time
to rectify that.
705
00:30:06,047 --> 00:30:07,846
Got it.
706
00:30:07,848 --> 00:30:09,882
Drink?
707
00:30:12,386 --> 00:30:13,585
So...
708
00:30:13,587 --> 00:30:15,587
lay it on me.
709
00:30:15,589 --> 00:30:17,890
Come on, I could've yelled
for security
710
00:30:17,892 --> 00:30:19,792
the moment I saw you,
but I didn't.
711
00:30:20,795 --> 00:30:22,327
Humor me.
712
00:30:22,329 --> 00:30:24,563
What do you see?
713
00:30:24,565 --> 00:30:26,999
I see very much
what I expected to see.
714
00:30:28,202 --> 00:30:29,835
A psychopath
with no real human connections,
715
00:30:29,837 --> 00:30:31,603
except for the façades
he maintains for convenience.
716
00:30:31,605 --> 00:30:33,238
A vampire of sorts,
717
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,175
but instead of blood,
you feed on hopes and dreams.
718
00:30:36,177 --> 00:30:37,810
Do one I haven't been called.
719
00:30:39,013 --> 00:30:40,679
Very well.
720
00:30:40,681 --> 00:30:43,015
You're a double destroyer
of lives.
721
00:30:43,017 --> 00:30:44,850
Once when you wrote people
into debt,
722
00:30:44,852 --> 00:30:46,385
and then again
when you used that debt
723
00:30:46,387 --> 00:30:48,620
to leverage them
into doing your bidding.
724
00:30:48,622 --> 00:30:51,223
Well, I haven't heard that one.
725
00:30:51,225 --> 00:30:53,325
Look, I'm doing
726
00:30:53,327 --> 00:30:55,194
what guys like me
have been doing
727
00:30:55,196 --> 00:30:56,428
since the beginning of time.
728
00:30:56,430 --> 00:30:58,297
Promising people
on that side of the wall
729
00:30:58,299 --> 00:31:00,199
that what I'm selling
will help them get
730
00:31:00,201 --> 00:31:02,267
to this side of the wall.
731
00:31:02,269 --> 00:31:03,569
Why do you care so much?
732
00:31:03,571 --> 00:31:04,937
Wha-wha-what's it to you?
733
00:31:04,939 --> 00:31:06,605
Oh, two people are dead.
734
00:31:06,607 --> 00:31:08,507
That's what it is to me.
735
00:31:08,509 --> 00:31:10,242
I heard somebody confessed
to those killings.
736
00:31:10,244 --> 00:31:12,077
His name is Victor Nieves.
737
00:31:12,079 --> 00:31:14,113
And you'll be hearing his name
at your trial,
738
00:31:14,115 --> 00:31:15,881
because you hired him
to commit one murder
739
00:31:15,883 --> 00:31:18,183
and then take the blame
for another.
740
00:31:18,185 --> 00:31:20,319
Oh, wait, so you,
741
00:31:20,321 --> 00:31:23,489
you think that I wanted
Dennis Hicks murdered
742
00:31:23,491 --> 00:31:25,290
because he was a whistleblower.
743
00:31:25,292 --> 00:31:27,259
Okay, but Lily Cooper?
744
00:31:27,261 --> 00:31:29,962
Why on earth
would I want to hurt her?
745
00:31:29,964 --> 00:31:31,463
She was gathering evidence
746
00:31:31,465 --> 00:31:33,065
to present
to the Department of Education,
747
00:31:33,067 --> 00:31:34,466
a file with a list
of individuals
748
00:31:34,468 --> 00:31:36,368
that Fairbridge University
had deceived.
749
00:31:36,370 --> 00:31:38,270
Ah.
750
00:31:38,272 --> 00:31:41,707
Okay, those guys you just
saw me say goodbye to?
751
00:31:41,709 --> 00:31:44,309
Lead counsel for the D.O.E.
752
00:31:44,311 --> 00:31:46,512
We just shook hands
753
00:31:46,514 --> 00:31:48,147
on a deal that's been
in the works for a week.
754
00:31:48,149 --> 00:31:50,282
Pay a fine,
support some guidelines
755
00:31:50,284 --> 00:31:51,617
they want to enforce,
756
00:31:51,619 --> 00:31:54,219
and that'll be that.
757
00:31:54,221 --> 00:31:55,521
It amounts to nothing.
758
00:31:55,523 --> 00:31:58,457
So whatever sob story
759
00:31:58,459 --> 00:32:01,093
that woman would present, I,
I didn't care.
760
00:32:01,095 --> 00:32:04,062
I've known this investigation's
going away for days.
761
00:32:04,064 --> 00:32:07,132
I'm sure you'll be
able to confirm that.
762
00:32:07,134 --> 00:32:10,068
Obviously, you, uh,
763
00:32:10,070 --> 00:32:13,172
you know the way out.
764
00:32:15,109 --> 00:32:17,976
Oh, you're back.
765
00:32:17,978 --> 00:32:20,179
Fairbridge University
decided to stop cooperating.
766
00:32:20,181 --> 00:32:22,147
So Marcus and I have been
767
00:32:22,149 --> 00:32:23,649
getting help from the D.O.E.
768
00:32:23,651 --> 00:32:24,950
We've been
comparing registration
769
00:32:24,952 --> 00:32:26,385
and student loan records
770
00:32:26,387 --> 00:32:27,986
against their
department's databases.
771
00:32:27,988 --> 00:32:29,254
It's gonna take some time.
772
00:32:29,256 --> 00:32:30,255
Oh, how'd it go
773
00:32:30,257 --> 00:32:31,523
with the haystack?
774
00:32:31,525 --> 00:32:33,025
Trager left me
questioning his motive
775
00:32:33,027 --> 00:32:34,827
for having Lily Cooper killed,
776
00:32:34,829 --> 00:32:37,896
but I'm as convinced as ever
that he did have her killed.
777
00:32:37,898 --> 00:32:39,431
Other than that,
one of his diplomas is fake,
778
00:32:39,433 --> 00:32:41,433
and he's a hunter,
so his lack of empathy
779
00:32:41,435 --> 00:32:43,268
extends beyond bipeds.
780
00:32:44,605 --> 00:32:45,771
Expecting someone?
781
00:32:45,773 --> 00:32:47,339
No.
782
00:32:47,341 --> 00:32:50,042
Perhaps I goaded Trager
into sending another assassin.
783
00:32:50,044 --> 00:32:51,543
Seriously?
784
00:32:51,545 --> 00:32:53,612
Look on the bright side--
if one of us survives,
785
00:32:53,614 --> 00:32:56,782
we'll have identified
another needle.
786
00:33:08,495 --> 00:33:10,896
It was true.
787
00:33:10,898 --> 00:33:12,965
What you said before.
788
00:33:12,967 --> 00:33:15,067
I should never have
789
00:33:15,069 --> 00:33:17,736
suspected my own son.
790
00:33:18,739 --> 00:33:20,806
I do know you.
791
00:33:20,808 --> 00:33:25,043
But in my defense,
it was not without reason.
792
00:33:25,045 --> 00:33:28,513
I-I'd like to think
that we had grown
793
00:33:28,515 --> 00:33:30,249
a little closer
these last months to,
794
00:33:30,251 --> 00:33:34,086
to understanding one another
a little better.
795
00:33:34,088 --> 00:33:36,054
Well...
796
00:33:36,056 --> 00:33:39,191
you remember where we were
two years ago.
797
00:33:39,193 --> 00:33:42,961
Not to mention
the decades before.
798
00:33:44,098 --> 00:33:46,498
My investigators
799
00:33:46,500 --> 00:33:47,933
located a Paris cabbie,
800
00:33:47,935 --> 00:33:50,802
who identified you to a tee.
801
00:33:50,804 --> 00:33:53,138
He said he had you as a fare
802
00:33:53,140 --> 00:33:56,275
in the vicinity
on the night of the attack.
803
00:33:56,277 --> 00:33:58,010
You were living
in London at the time,
804
00:33:58,012 --> 00:33:59,678
so it seemed plausible.
805
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,546
Yeah.
806
00:34:01,548 --> 00:34:04,216
Uh, do you think
I would've been as careless
807
00:34:04,218 --> 00:34:07,619
as to allow a witness
to identify me?
808
00:34:07,621 --> 00:34:09,354
Eventually I asked myself
that very question,
809
00:34:09,356 --> 00:34:11,657
and I concluded
that it was more likely
810
00:34:11,659 --> 00:34:15,060
that he'd been bribed
to throw us off.
811
00:34:15,062 --> 00:34:17,663
Since recanted his tale, has he?
812
00:34:17,665 --> 00:34:20,832
He's proved impossible
to find again.
813
00:34:20,834 --> 00:34:23,302
Now whether this means
that he is dead
814
00:34:23,304 --> 00:34:27,072
or simply vanished,
I, I can't say.
815
00:34:27,074 --> 00:34:30,208
But I urged my people
to move off you
816
00:34:30,210 --> 00:34:32,077
as a suspect, nonetheless.
817
00:34:32,079 --> 00:34:33,779
Mm-hmm.
818
00:34:33,781 --> 00:34:36,748
Lukas Muller just failed
to get that memo, did he?
819
00:34:36,750 --> 00:34:39,818
Lukas never believed that
I'd stopped suspecting you.
820
00:34:39,820 --> 00:34:42,955
He was convinced
it was just my way of,
821
00:34:42,957 --> 00:34:45,624
of sending the eyes
of the law elsewhere,
822
00:34:45,626 --> 00:34:47,993
while I dealt with you myself.
823
00:34:47,995 --> 00:34:51,163
And recently he threatened
to tell you as much.
824
00:34:51,165 --> 00:34:53,365
Right, so then you
threatened him back.
825
00:34:53,367 --> 00:34:56,301
That's why he was
so afraid of me?
826
00:34:56,303 --> 00:34:58,170
It happened that my previous
827
00:34:58,172 --> 00:35:01,873
Interpol contact was murdered.
828
00:35:01,875 --> 00:35:04,977
An agent called Jasper De Clerq.
829
00:35:04,979 --> 00:35:06,979
I told Lukas
I was behind it.
830
00:35:06,981 --> 00:35:08,347
But you weren't.
831
00:35:08,349 --> 00:35:10,549
No.
832
00:35:10,551 --> 00:35:13,251
Uh, you'll understand if I find
your word on the matter
833
00:35:13,253 --> 00:35:16,021
less than reliable?
834
00:35:17,391 --> 00:35:20,492
Well, I hope you'll
take my word on this.
835
00:35:20,494 --> 00:35:24,162
As soon as I stopped
considering you as a suspect,
836
00:35:24,164 --> 00:35:27,933
I realized how terrible it was
that I ever had.
837
00:35:27,935 --> 00:35:30,435
When I heard
about your relapse,
838
00:35:30,437 --> 00:35:34,639
I decided to arrange
an extended stay in New York.
839
00:35:34,641 --> 00:35:36,475
That it was time
840
00:35:36,477 --> 00:35:39,878
to make things right
between us.
841
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,982
And that was always
my only reason for coming.
842
00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:47,019
You've made it clear
843
00:35:47,021 --> 00:35:49,287
you'd like me
to return to London.
844
00:35:49,289 --> 00:35:51,490
And so I shall.
845
00:35:54,395 --> 00:35:56,995
I just wanted you to know.
846
00:36:06,964 --> 00:36:08,630
Are these candidates
for your potential pool
847
00:36:08,632 --> 00:36:10,832
of Wilson Trager's
problem solvers?
848
00:36:10,834 --> 00:36:12,334
Call it a first swing.
849
00:36:12,336 --> 00:36:14,136
I focused on people
who live locally
850
00:36:14,138 --> 00:36:16,805
with criminal records that match
the skills that Trager needed.
851
00:36:16,807 --> 00:36:19,674
Fairbridge students
who defaulted on their loans.
852
00:36:19,676 --> 00:36:22,644
Each packet contains everything
we've gathered for that person.
853
00:36:22,646 --> 00:36:25,647
Rap sheets, parole records,
loan histories from the D.O.E.
854
00:36:25,649 --> 00:36:27,616
I thought we could
look through them,
855
00:36:27,618 --> 00:36:29,484
and then just
narrow them down from here.
856
00:36:29,486 --> 00:36:31,520
You included Victor Nieves,
I see.
857
00:36:31,522 --> 00:36:33,455
Yeah, he's the only person
858
00:36:33,457 --> 00:36:35,457
that we know for sure.
859
00:36:35,459 --> 00:36:36,992
So I used him as a model
for the profile.
860
00:36:36,994 --> 00:36:38,727
I imagine the file
861
00:36:38,729 --> 00:36:40,195
that disappeared
from Lily Cooper's office
862
00:36:40,197 --> 00:36:42,597
contained many
of these same faces.
863
00:36:42,599 --> 00:36:44,533
Perhaps even Victor Nieves.
864
00:36:44,535 --> 00:36:46,268
It's ironic.
865
00:36:46,270 --> 00:36:48,003
If we're right,
866
00:36:48,005 --> 00:36:50,438
Lily and Trager would've used
much of the same criteria.
867
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,440
One of them to help people.
868
00:36:52,442 --> 00:36:55,076
And the other to exploit them.
869
00:37:01,952 --> 00:37:04,519
Hmm.
870
00:37:06,623 --> 00:37:08,323
Plaid is nice.
871
00:37:08,325 --> 00:37:10,292
Sudden urge to buy a throw?
872
00:37:10,294 --> 00:37:11,660
It's not plaid.
873
00:37:11,662 --> 00:37:12,827
It's tartan.
874
00:37:12,829 --> 00:37:14,596
And I think
this might be the key
875
00:37:14,598 --> 00:37:16,631
to bringing down Wilson Trager.
876
00:37:16,633 --> 00:37:19,201
Projected demand
877
00:37:19,203 --> 00:37:20,936
over the next five years
has us outgrowing
878
00:37:20,938 --> 00:37:22,337
several of
our satellite campuses.
879
00:37:22,339 --> 00:37:25,073
We're scouting
existing facilities.
880
00:37:25,075 --> 00:37:28,310
But at least one or two will
have to be new construction.
881
00:37:32,749 --> 00:37:33,815
What the hell is that?
882
00:37:34,985 --> 00:37:36,985
Uh, that's one of mine.
883
00:37:36,987 --> 00:37:38,286
Yeah, um,
884
00:37:38,288 --> 00:37:39,921
your calendar
mentioned this meeting,
885
00:37:39,923 --> 00:37:42,691
so I took the liberty
of preparing my own slideshow.
886
00:37:42,693 --> 00:37:45,026
It's gonna be much
more illuminating, I promise.
887
00:37:45,028 --> 00:37:46,494
Yeah, uh, may I?
888
00:37:46,496 --> 00:37:48,029
Thanks, thank you.
889
00:37:48,031 --> 00:37:51,199
Yes, the face before you
is Claudette Bailey.
890
00:37:51,201 --> 00:37:53,134
Fairbridge University,
class of 2012.
891
00:37:53,136 --> 00:37:54,703
Before that,
892
00:37:54,705 --> 00:37:56,104
she did 31 months for fraud
893
00:37:56,106 --> 00:37:57,439
and destruction of property.
894
00:37:57,441 --> 00:37:59,107
When you sent her
895
00:37:59,109 --> 00:38:01,977
to set fire to the city
building inspector's office,
896
00:38:01,979 --> 00:38:03,545
she posed as one
of the cleaning crew
897
00:38:03,547 --> 00:38:05,981
and disguised her accelerant
as flood cleaner.
898
00:38:05,983 --> 00:38:07,415
When I sent her?
899
00:38:07,417 --> 00:38:09,818
I've no idea who that woman is.
900
00:38:11,288 --> 00:38:13,788
This is Joseph DeLuca.
901
00:38:13,790 --> 00:38:16,191
He ran over a board member
in your co-op for you.
902
00:38:16,193 --> 00:38:18,560
All right, everyone out.
903
00:38:18,562 --> 00:38:20,862
I'm having you thrown
out for trespassing.
904
00:38:20,864 --> 00:38:23,498
Oh, security already knows
that we're here.
905
00:38:23,500 --> 00:38:26,134
Detective Bell is showing them
our warrant as we speak.
906
00:38:26,136 --> 00:38:29,304
We just didn't... we just
didn't feel like waiting.
907
00:38:29,306 --> 00:38:31,039
We thought that your staff
deserved to know who
908
00:38:31,041 --> 00:38:32,774
they're working for ASAP.
909
00:38:32,776 --> 00:38:34,709
Victor Nieves.
910
00:38:34,711 --> 00:38:36,177
We've spoken about him,
911
00:38:36,179 --> 00:38:38,847
of course, but now you have
a face to put to the name.
912
00:38:38,849 --> 00:38:41,549
Boyd Erlich,
who at your instructions,
913
00:38:41,551 --> 00:38:44,819
strangled Lily Cooper
with his bare hands.
914
00:38:44,821 --> 00:38:47,155
All right, this is,
this is wonderful theater.
915
00:38:47,157 --> 00:38:49,157
Your imagination
is running wild.
916
00:38:49,159 --> 00:38:51,593
But I can't be connected
to any of these people.
917
00:38:51,595 --> 00:38:53,128
You're wrong about that.
918
00:38:53,130 --> 00:38:55,530
We figured out
how you've been choosing them.
919
00:38:55,532 --> 00:38:58,533
Or more accurately, who has
been choosing them for you.
920
00:38:58,535 --> 00:39:00,835
The collections agent
who was assigned their loans.
921
00:39:00,837 --> 00:39:02,070
Yesterday, in your office,
922
00:39:02,072 --> 00:39:03,505
I noticed a photograph of you
923
00:39:03,507 --> 00:39:05,140
hunting in Scotland.
924
00:39:05,142 --> 00:39:08,143
I recognized the tartan
worn by your companion
925
00:39:08,145 --> 00:39:09,844
as belonging
to the Mackmain clan.
926
00:39:09,846 --> 00:39:11,946
And judging by the structure
of his facial features,
927
00:39:11,948 --> 00:39:13,715
I took him to be
a relative of your wife.
928
00:39:13,717 --> 00:39:15,984
Later on, I noticed
in Victor Nieves'
929
00:39:15,986 --> 00:39:18,086
loan history that
his collection agent's name
930
00:39:18,088 --> 00:39:20,055
was Bradley Mackmain.
931
00:39:20,057 --> 00:39:22,390
Not a terribly common name,
but it was enough
932
00:39:22,392 --> 00:39:24,626
of a coincidence
to merit our attention.
933
00:39:24,628 --> 00:39:26,728
So we checked,
and Bradley Mackmain
934
00:39:26,730 --> 00:39:29,364
is your wife's nephew.
He picked the people
935
00:39:29,366 --> 00:39:31,466
to coerce based
on your instructions.
936
00:39:31,468 --> 00:39:34,636
That's why there was never a
paper trail leading back to you.
937
00:39:34,638 --> 00:39:35,804
You said that we were wrong
938
00:39:35,806 --> 00:39:37,639
about why Lily Cooper
was murdered.
939
00:39:37,641 --> 00:39:39,607
And you spoke the truth.
940
00:39:39,609 --> 00:39:41,409
It wasn't that
her case file would be
941
00:39:41,411 --> 00:39:43,411
so damning
in front of the D.O.E.
942
00:39:43,413 --> 00:39:45,980
It was that she had
included Victor Nieves,
943
00:39:45,982 --> 00:39:47,816
and noticed
that his defaulted loan
944
00:39:47,818 --> 00:39:50,185
had suddenly started
being paid again.
945
00:39:50,187 --> 00:39:52,120
And Lily genuinely
cared about Victor.
946
00:39:52,122 --> 00:39:54,789
She was worried that he'd gone
back to committing robberies.
947
00:39:54,791 --> 00:39:57,192
So she started
hounding him for answers.
948
00:39:57,194 --> 00:39:59,094
And then she called
Mackmain to confirm
949
00:39:59,096 --> 00:40:01,930
the information was correct,
but she wouldn't let it go.
950
00:40:01,932 --> 00:40:04,399
And she was getting too close.
951
00:40:04,401 --> 00:40:06,334
How do we know all this?
952
00:40:06,336 --> 00:40:08,970
The police had
a pointed conversation
953
00:40:08,972 --> 00:40:11,306
with Bradley Mackmain.
954
00:40:11,308 --> 00:40:14,309
He seemed remarkably eager
to testify against you
955
00:40:14,311 --> 00:40:15,610
in exchange for a deal.
956
00:40:15,612 --> 00:40:17,379
Wilson Trager?
957
00:40:17,381 --> 00:40:19,447
You're under arrest
for the murder of Dennis Hicks
958
00:40:19,449 --> 00:40:21,149
and Lily Cooper.
959
00:40:30,694 --> 00:40:32,460
I was gonna order takeout.
960
00:40:32,462 --> 00:40:34,529
Do you have any preferences?
961
00:40:37,434 --> 00:40:39,968
Oh, I didn't realize
someone else was here.
962
00:40:39,970 --> 00:40:41,669
I wasn't.
963
00:40:45,308 --> 00:40:47,242
I take it that was your friend
from the mercenary group?
964
00:40:47,244 --> 00:40:49,878
You guys went another round?
965
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,480
I needed some information,
and she was able to provide it.
966
00:40:52,482 --> 00:40:53,782
Quid pro quo was in order.
967
00:40:53,784 --> 00:40:55,683
Uh, feel free
to eat without me.
968
00:40:55,685 --> 00:40:58,086
There's somewhere
I need to be.
969
00:41:08,799 --> 00:41:10,365
Sherlock?
970
00:41:12,035 --> 00:41:13,334
Don't get the wrong idea.
971
00:41:13,336 --> 00:41:15,036
I'm not here to stop you
or anything.
972
00:41:15,038 --> 00:41:17,472
I just came here
to give you this.
973
00:41:17,474 --> 00:41:19,541
I did some digging
974
00:41:19,543 --> 00:41:21,709
into the murder
of Jasper De Clerq.
975
00:41:21,711 --> 00:41:23,311
Don't look surprised.
976
00:41:23,313 --> 00:41:25,346
I was quite clear about
my mistrust of your explanation.
977
00:41:25,348 --> 00:41:27,682
And as it turns out,
what you told me
978
00:41:27,684 --> 00:41:29,150
about the murder
of Jasper De Clerq
979
00:41:29,152 --> 00:41:30,385
was not entirely true.
980
00:41:30,387 --> 00:41:32,987
I assure you it was.
981
00:41:32,989 --> 00:41:34,622
You said you had nothing
to do with De Clerq's death.
982
00:41:34,624 --> 00:41:35,924
In point of fact,
De Clerq's death
983
00:41:35,926 --> 00:41:37,525
had everything to do with you.
984
00:41:37,527 --> 00:41:39,894
In there,
you'll find De Clerq's
985
00:41:39,896 --> 00:41:41,563
travel and phone records
in the weeks
986
00:41:41,565 --> 00:41:42,897
leading up to the shooting.
987
00:41:42,899 --> 00:41:44,599
You notice anything about them?
988
00:41:44,601 --> 00:41:46,401
Well...
989
00:41:46,403 --> 00:41:48,470
Tokyo for four days.
990
00:41:49,873 --> 00:41:52,006
Then Riyadh.
991
00:41:52,008 --> 00:41:53,875
Then back to London.
992
00:41:55,145 --> 00:41:56,945
He was everywhere I was.
993
00:41:56,947 --> 00:41:58,513
He was spying on you.
994
00:41:58,515 --> 00:42:00,548
In all likelihood,
995
00:42:00,550 --> 00:42:03,184
keeping his eyes open
for a vulnerable moment.
996
00:42:03,186 --> 00:42:05,053
The timing of De Clerq's murder,
997
00:42:05,055 --> 00:42:07,155
just as your investigation into
the shooting was heating up,
998
00:42:07,157 --> 00:42:09,624
suggests he was killed
to tie up a loose end.
999
00:42:09,626 --> 00:42:13,394
Whoever killed Sabine
and tried to kill me,
1000
00:42:13,396 --> 00:42:16,231
De Clerq was working for them.
1001
00:42:19,402 --> 00:42:20,335
It's a new clue.
1002
00:42:20,337 --> 00:42:21,903
Thank you, son.
1003
00:42:23,206 --> 00:42:24,639
You said you were
deliberately fed a false lead
1004
00:42:24,641 --> 00:42:26,674
to cast suspicion on me.
1005
00:42:26,676 --> 00:42:28,910
That is an affront
to my reputation.
1006
00:42:28,912 --> 00:42:31,279
An offense which I cannot abide.
1007
00:42:31,281 --> 00:42:33,414
You stay, go--
1008
00:42:33,416 --> 00:42:35,116
I don't care.
1009
00:42:35,118 --> 00:42:37,785
But either way,
1010
00:42:37,787 --> 00:42:39,854
I'm gonna find and stop
whoever tried to kill you.
1011
00:42:46,435 --> 00:42:52,935
